Golf fans heading out to Napa to catch a round or two of the Safeway Open are a little peeved, many buying tickets after Tiger committed to the event which is typically a showcase for players without a firm grip on that PGA Tour card. Jimmy Walker notched his first top tour win here in 2013 and last year Emiliano Grillo grabbed his victory numero uno.

But this time around was supposed to be the return of the mack but el Tigre pulled at the 11th hour just a couple days before the event’s pro-am where he was slated to play with with Steph Curry leaving many fans miffed.

Tiger Woods official statement was:
“After a lot of soul searching and honest reflection, I know that I am not yet ready to play on the PGA Tour or compete in Turkey."

But What’s the Real Reason Tiger Got Cold Feet? Lets count’em down

#6 Caught a real bad case of the Chip-yips, the most embarrassing strain of the debilitating golf ailment.

#5 Kept going back on forth on whether he’s going to go with Mizuno or PXG irons and just couldn’t confidently make the decision.

#4 PHIL-OPHOBIA- He got word of the pairing with Mickelson and I get it, playing with Phil is no picnic

#3 When Jesper Parnevik crowed to Golf Digest that Woods was “flushing everything” he meant at the Bidet Superstore.

#2 Was hankering for some old school Beyonce so was listening to Destiny’s Child and that, “ I don't think you ready for this jelly. I don't think you ready for this jelly,” line really stuck in and hey Safeway sells a ton of Smuckers.

#1 While fetching players turkey sandwiches and performing the other pertinent duties of the Ryder Cup Team’s assistant captain he realized these guys aren’t just really good, they’re incredible.
